Rudolph Days for June

Each month there is a challenge to produce Christmas cards from 25th to the end of the month - find details HERE. There are some great inspiration cards from the design team and considering the Shopping channels seem to be well into Christmas I decided to make a quick card using a stamp which I won a few months ago. The image was stamped using Versafine and coloured with Distress ink markers scribbled onto a tile and picked up with a wet brush. Oval dies were used to cut out the image and the card was finished with some leaves and a Bow and Star diecut all of which were in one of the 'pots' on my desk where I keep such things until they come in handy. I'm afraid I can't remember where the bow and star came from and a quick look amongst my dies didn't unearth the die. The background paper came from my stack of odd pieces of paper and the sentiment was a download. A couple of gems were added for mistletoe berries.

Image - House Mouse stamp
Ovals - Tonic nesting ovals dies
Leaves - die from a set given with magazine last Christmas
Bow and Star - die unknown as it was from my oddments cut a long time ago.
Sentiment - download from Netty's Cards

About Me

I've only just realised that my original words about myself seem to have disappeared being replaced by what I wrote on my other blog which has now been deleted. I have been crafting for many years and possibly the words 'Jack of all trades' could be applied because there aren't many crafts I've not attempted. I enjoy paper crafting (all aspects), beading, embroidery, general sewing, crochet, knitting ... the list goes on. I find that being creative in one way or another is very relaxing and enjoyable and I like to share some of the results with others, hence the blog posts,
